Indian players tried their best efforts in ICC T20 World Cup 2022 but faced a poor loss in the semi-final. Indian cricket witnessed a captaincy shift at the start of this year when Rohit Sharma overtook Virat Kohli as the new skipper in all three formats.

However, the captaincy change did not work quite well for India as the team failed to win another ICC Trophy during T20 World Cup 2022. BCCI has now changed Indian selectors and is looking for a new set of selectors for the Indian team.

BCCI is also looking at the option of split captaincy for the Indian team. Hence, India might have different skippers for Tests, ODIs, and T20Is. However, if we take a look at the bilateral series, Rohit Sharma’s captaincy has worked quite well. Here we talk about 3 Indian players who can captain team India in all 3 formats for the next 10 years.
